John Davison Rockefeller Jr. (Brown ’97) has distributed his offspring among U. S. colleges with the same conscientious impartiality that has characterized his largess. John Davison Rockefeller III was Princeton ’29; Nelson Aldrich, Dartmouth ’30; Laurance Spelman, Princeton ’32; Winthrop Aldrich, Yale ’35 (but no graduate); David, Harvard ’36. Last week Princeton, which is currently seeking $6,500,000, elected serious young John D. Ill a life member of its Board of Trustees. Mr. Rockefeller; 31, is already a trustee of the Rockefeller Foundation, the General Education Board, the American Museum of Natural History.
